(Jer 47:1) The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Philistines, before that Pharaoh smote Gaza.
(Jer 47:2) Thus saith the Lord; Behold, waters rise up out of the north, and shall be an overflowing flood, and shall overflow the land, and all that is therein; the city, and them that dwell therein: then the men shall cry, and all the inhabitants of the land shall howl.
(Jer 47:3) At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong {horses}, at the rushing of his chariots, {and at} the rumbling of his wheels, the fathers shall not look back to {their} children for feebleness of hands;
(Jer 47:4) Because of the day that cometh to spoil all the Philistines, {and} to cut off from Tyrus and Zidon every helper that remaineth: for the Lord will spoil the Philistines, the remnant of the country of Caphtor.
(Jer 47:5) Baldness is come upon Gaza; Ashkelon is cut off {with} the remnant of their valley: how long wilt thou cut thyself?
(Jer 47:6) O thou sword of the Lord, how long {will it be} ere thou be quiet? put up thyself into thy scabbard, rest, and be still.
(Jer 47:7) How can it be quiet, seeing the Lord hath given it a charge against Ashkelon, and against the sea shore? there hath he appointed it.
